Note: this website was created to celebrate Selden Island, a place whose beauty and history were cherished by our good friend, Paul Robertson (shown on the left, leading a group hike on the island in 2010).The white trail on Selden Island was maintained by Paul until he passed away, in November 2010. A stone marker at the north end of the trail bears his name, in honor of his conservation and education efforts ~ Bruce and Tammy Noyes Old Lyme, CT (email)
